A little Jewlery

Hello Everyone out there,

Todays post is going to be quick. I have a few things that I'm trying to

get finished up.

My friend wanted to get some type of jewlery made for

her daughters so we worked on these two pieces. In the header picture

is a necklace with a lot of bling. In the next picture is a floral necklace.

We both were happy with the bling necklace. Not to thrilled with the

floral one so we might redo it. We used things that I already had but

I think the flowers need to be better defined.

We'll see what tomorrow brings and what I can get posted. Until

my next post Have a Great Evening!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Couple of more items done

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Isn't it amazing three posts in a row and to top it off in one week. In the

header picture is one of the canvases that I helped a friend get done.

The next two pictures are of a couple of other canvases that she also finished.

Besides the canvases we got three mirros etched but I forgot to get

pictures of those before she took them home. My friend also made a

couple of the gift boxes like the ones that I blogged about a while ago,

and two jewlery pieces. Hopefully tomorrow I will get those posted.

I've got cookies in the works again. I also have a couple of mini albums

that another friend and I worked on. As soon as I have a minute to get

each and every page photographed of the mini albums I'll post them too.

Now you all know why I've been MIA. I've been busy teaching others

how to create. Until my next post, Have a Great Evening!!!!!!!!!

Mmmmmm Cookies

Good Evening Blog Land,

Like I promised here is a picture of some of the baking that I have been

doing. In my header picture is Finnish Ribbon Cookies. I found this recipe

in a cookie cookbook and tried it out over ten years ago and now every

year around this time my family reminds me that I need to make these

cookies. Below is what they look like before the finishing touch is put on

them.

These cookies kind of remind me of the raspberry swirl cookies but

let me tell you the cookie part is much better tasting on these. I also did some Pumpkin Spice bread baking and some chocolate chip

cookies but those pictures all turned out blurry. Oh well thats how the

cookie crumbles. Until my next post Have a Great Evening!!!!!!!

Wall Art

Good Evening Blog Land,

I know it's been a while but I've been busy creating and not by myself.

either. I have so much that I have been working on. In my header picture

you see a canvas with a collage of words pertaining to coffee. For those

of you that own a cricut there is a cartridge called Word Collage and

you can do the same thing that I have done on canvas. The cartridge

does not have a collage of coffee words. Just so that you are well aware

before you run to buy it. I actually saw one that was similar to mine but

I think that they own a few more alpahabet cartridges than I do so some

of their words are fancier than mine. I did this using my Gypsy. In the

next photo I used the same concept. This one isn't on the Word Collage

cartridge either it was also done using my Gypsy and the alphabet cartridges

I own.

I have a friend that has been collecting items that have these very words

so I made it for her. She doesn't know it so don't let the cat out of the bag.

I took the picture before I had found a frame for the Love canvas hopefully

tomorrow I'll get a picture of it in its frame so I can post it.

I have had a couple of friends over and we worked on etching some

mirrors, mod podged some other canvases, also we worked on a couple

of scrapbook mini albums.

In the next few days I hope I can get eveything posted on my blog

including the baking that I have been doing. Maybe you'll even get to see

my new furniture if I make a decision on what I really want...LOL......

Yes you heard right I'm getting new furniture. That is another thing that

I have been busy doing. Furniture shopping is like car shopping and I hate

doing both of those things but it has to be done before we find ourselves

sitting on the floor. Hopefully that task will get done this week. Until my

next post Have a Great Evening!!!!!!!!
